Tree Pruning

Crown Reduction

& Re-shaping

The removal or shortening of branches to a suitable growth point to shape the crown into an aesthetically pleasing form. This process reshapes an unbalanced crown by reducing its height and/or spread. This process is also beneficial for future tree growth as it reduces the weight of the branches, limiting their likelihood of breakage.

Crown Thinning

&lifting

Crown thinning is the process which reduces the density of a tree canopy to ensure an evenly-spaced branch structure that allows more light to pass through the tree and reduces wind resistance.This process does not reduce the overall size of the tree.

​

Crown lifting is the removal of the lowest branches to increase light beneath the canopy and/or to achieve a desired vertical clearance above ground level.
